Even though statisticians report that more than 37 million Americans suffer from diagnosable social phobia, common sense suggests that nearly all of us have, at one time or another, had clammy palms and knocking knees because of an intimidating, uncomfortable social situation. The party where you donit know a single soul, the crowded lobby of a movie theatre, the presentation youive been dreading for weeks-any of these have the potential to ruin your week without necessarily sending you to the psychiatristis couch. The ten simple exercises in this book help you shed your shyness and start socializing with confidence and Elan. 10 Simple Solutions to Shyness examines shyness by symptoms: physical discomfort, anxious thoughts, and bothersome behaviors. Solutions follow, directly addressing all three. You can carry the book in a briefcase or purse for last minute support and extra confidence. Once the ten simple solutions are learned, they will become your constant companions, providing courage, poise, and composure whenever you need them most.

Re the book on shyness and the one on "Clear Speech"
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
I found the condition of both books excellent. The second was particularly relevant to what I was doing, although I did get some ideas from the first. I needed the books urgently and they were out of print in Australia, so I cheerfully bore the cost of the exchange rate and shipping. The books arived in good time. Patricia Bryan Dip.

A Powerfully Simple Approach to Shyness
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
I've suffered from social anxiety for years, and have found many ways to avoid it. My therapist recommended this book, and I have found it to be insightful, direct, and immediately helpful. As with most books that deal with social anxiety, your progress towards alleviating that anxiety is really dependent upon the work that you are willing to do to complete the exercises that are outlined in the book. I'm just getting started myself, but already I have a more hopeful outlook on being able to just be myself and accept what happens as I put myself "out there" in engaging in social situations. I hope you find this book just as motivational.
